Los Angeles - Actress Shannen Doherty has been sentenced to three years probation after being found guilty of drunken driving charges, reports say.
The 30-year-old actress will also have to pay a $1 500 fine, complete six days of a work release programme or serve 48 hours in jail, prosecutors said. Both conditions can be waived if she
addresses community groups about the dangers of drunken driving.
Doherty, who recently left the TV show "Charmed", pleaded no
contest to misdemeanour drunken driving charges after she was
arrested in Los Angeles by officers who said they saw her Ford
pickup truck weaving on the highway. - Sapa-DPA
